Gimimas II
The work Gimimas (Birth/Beginning in Lithuanian) in its shape contains the story of the beginning, a new world, a new spring. The round shape symbolises the myth of the eternal circle of the universe that has no beginning and no end. The round form is the most organic form, a container of circulating energy, a cavity in which life arises. The last millennia of human history became the age of angular forms. These shapes, their sharp angles, measured symmetry and square rooms in which we live, learn and work, have had a direct influence on the direction of our evolution as a human race. Surrounding yourself with shapes that reflect the flow and constant change of living nature means allowing yourself to escape from the experience of reality constructed by the mind. To merge with the natural state of being. To be creative, imperfect and thus truly free.
This original piece is entirely handbuilt & handcrafted. The surface is kept raw, unglazed, leaving the natural texture of rough chamotte clay sensible. Glazed inside. High-fired at 1200°C. Suitable for water storage.
Dimensions: H 23cm x Ø 18cm
